Unfortunately, my experience with the Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Sunscreen wasn't as positive as I had hoped. While itโs widely known for being lightweight and offering high SPF protection, I encountered a few issues. First, the texture of the sunscreen was a bit too greasy for my liking, especially in humid conditions. Although it's marketed as a lightweight, non-greasy formula, I found it left a shiny finish on my skin, which made me feel sticky throughout the day. Even after applying a small amount, it didnโt fully absorb and felt like it was sitting on top of my skin. Secondly, after a few uses, I noticed it clogged my pores, leading to breakouts. My skin is combination type, and this sunscreen seemed to aggravate it, especially in the T-zone area. The sunscreen felt heavy when I reapplied it, which may have contributed to the breakouts. While it does provide strong sun protection with its SPF 50, which is ideal for long sun exposure, I would recommend it mainly for people with less oily or sensitive skin. The product might work better for dry skin, but for those with oily or acne-prone skin like mine, this sunscreen might not be the best option. Another minor issue was the white cast it left on my skin, particularly noticeable in photographs. It wasnโt the worst, but it did take a bit of time to blend in properly. In summary, while the Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Sunscreen offers great UV protection, its greasy feel, potential to cause breakouts, and white cast left me disappointed. Iโd suggest patch-testing if you have sensitive or acne-prone skin before committing to it.
